Screw valentines day, and screw singles day. I'm celebrating friendzone awareness day

[Evilshy 5,090]

For those of us who almost got the girl, only to be cruelly banished to the friendzone, to watch in misery as she dates jerks who treat her like trash. For those of us who listen to her crying on the phone about how some guy broke up with her. For those of us who are constantly told we are the best friend she's ever had, which somehow excludes us from dating her.

 

Here's to us. Now let's drink and play video games.

[Perfect_Harmony 58]

I stand with you! To video games! Huzzah!

[Vicke 3,189]

For me, this day is like any other. Its funny how everyone is so happy about it, ''When acculy nothing diffrent happens''

Friendzone guys think they are so wonderful, but they're not.

All my life I wanted to avoid being hurt etc

so I dated the 'friendzone' guys.

And once you find one that actually takes some care of their appearance,

they don't know how to treat a girl at all.

They aren't romantic, they put video games in front of you and can be quite selfish (in my experience).

Guys are freindzoned for a reason.

 

My current boyfriend had no luck with girls previously to me,

he told me when he met that all girls wanna do is hook-up and not have anything serious,

to which I responded

"you're hanging with the wrong girls and you won't find your soulmate in the club".

He showed his interest in my RIGHT AWAY, making his intentions clear.

Which got him out of the friendzone right away,

especially since I choose not to that male friend irl anyway (since they cause relationship issues, but that's for a different thread).

 

In short, if you are a sweet, respectful man.

You will get a sweet respectful girl,

because ANY GIRL WORTH DATING, won't waste her time with jerks (: ~

 

lots of love,

shankie ~

I have been friendzoned a lot, but I have to admit, I have friendzoned even more girls, so yeah, I totally deserve that.

V-day is stupid though nonetheless. So yeah. ALL HAIL THE FRIENDZONE-AWARENESS-DAY!

Screw Valentines and Here's to you.

Well, then how am I supposed to treat women? I bend over backwards to be there when they need it. I've shown my interest immediately, and I've waited till I knew her better, and everything in between and haven't gotten anywhere. I have plenty of female friends, but none of them will date me.

[Lord Sprixx 261]

I know that feel bro. I've been there. I am there still. My problem is that I wait too damn long, I am far too shy for my own good. A toast then! To all the guys in the friend zone, and to those who get out. Much luck my friends. Let us raise our drinks!

[Halfblood 364]

To be honest, I feel indifferent either way. I'm okay with not being in a relationship, for now at least. I've been "friend-zoned" before, and while I was a little upset, I accepted what was and moved on. You just got to remember to take the friend-zoning in stride and keep your self-confidence, without being too egotistical. Eventually, you'll meet someone who'll show interest and respect in all of your positive (and negative) qualities.

 

There are plenty 'o fish in the sea, or in this case, plenty 'o ponies in the wilds!

Well why do you think that is?

Maybe they're not attracted to you, and you should take better care of yourself physically.

And you shouldn't bend over backwards for anyone,

instead of becoming their friend, just ask them out on a date within the first few times of meeting them.

Dating and relationships are different.

I don't know enough about you to give an accurate answer, so these are just general suggestions. ~

I actually have to say, everything you just said is valid.

I really have a feeling that most "friendzoned" guys don't consider the fact that the girl might not be attracted to them (or vica-versa). I mean you can't force anything. Working too much also just makes you look like a friend. Though I have to say sometimes girls do tend to give mixed signals as hell and you really begin to doubt if they know what a "date" means...

[Whinny-Millie 28]

Most of the guys in my 'friendzone' list put themselves there, so I can't really add much to this conversation other than you actually need to ask the girl out, because chances are she wont guess that's what you're hoping for. Some many guys who were friends I would have dated if they'd had the guts, now no chance because I'm engaged.

 

Honestly, I wouldn't date a guy unless he'd been my friend first. This may just be a personal thing, but I like to have a general knowledge of a person before I let them that close to me. My fiance was my friend for almost a year before he asked me out and he and I just fit, if you get what I mean.

 

Also...he was not overly buff, as skinny as a rake and teenage-boy-adversed to showering when I met him. But he treated me with respect, kindness and listened to what I have to say. We had similarities in music and the way we thought, and while he brought out my sensible side I gave him some giggles.

 

I've never put much stock in appearances. Friends and even lovers can come from unlikely sources.

Here's to us. Now let's drink and play video games.

 

Cheers.

The main problem is that the affection is one-sided. If the other person also wants you, then it just goes, you should ALWAYS remember that if it really feels that you're the only one trying anything and nothing happens with say, two or three attempts, then the other side obviously isn't interested OR needs some more time, no need to push it, the other person will come around, if he/she is truly interested.

You can't say that you just have to ask a girl out. Sometimes you get REALLY mixed signals, basically trolled.

[Doctor XFizzle 8,669]

I used to consider myself a friend-zone occupant and supporter but (then I took a reality to the brain) now it's like meh, if I started going steady with girls who are my close friends it'd get too weird to take that emotional and physical next step in a relationship. I do feel attractiveness plays a big part in it whether that be personality/compatibility or straight up physical appearance (which in a perfect world wouldn't matter but this world is far from perfect).

 

I stopped feeling sorry for myself and now I'm just patiently biding my time, waiting for the right girl to cross paths with.

 

Just The Doctor's two cents

[Colon Leftbracket 971]

Not sure if I'm friendzone guy, or I just don't want a relationship...

 

I mean I guess I have been Friendzoned before but right now I'm single because I just don't care for a relationship at the moment.

 

Still though seeing everyone else in giddy romance tends to bring out the worst in me.

Next year I should find a friend who will agree to be "in a relationship" with me just for this one week

[Starlighty 969]

YES!!!

[Envy 6,167]

I don't know... Kind of... no really sick of hearing about this 'friend-zone'. I have this friend that goes on and on and on about it. It's so annoying. So he hasn't met a girl that wants to date him yet. He really seems to be under the impression that every girl will like him (well except for those he doesn't like of course. *rolls eyes*).

 

We don't choose who we like. You'd think he would understand that.

 

With this particular friend he's been friends with this one girl for three years, and she has rejected him every single time, and he never gets it! He still whines and makes (somewhat vague) status updates on Facebook about this every time she starts dating another guy. And, of course, no matter what, all of those guys that she dates are 'bad guys' in his eyes. It doesn't matter if they're actually a better person than he is.

 

And really... He's not the nicest guy. He's rude to me. He's just delusional. The only people he treats nicely are the girls that he likes. The rest of us, not so much. That just shows to me that he is fake. And you know what, of course he'll be 'friend-zoned', because we all see that he is fake.

 

I know not everybody is like him... I am just really annoyed with him, and everytime I see discussions about "nice guys" or "friend zones" I instantaneously think about him. He says all of the stereotypical things that 'nice guys' say, so it's kind of hard to see past him as an example. =/

I'm celebrating insanity, paranoia and lack of commitment day! =D Single pringle for life.

The guy your talking about seems like a punk, for lack of a better term. He doesn't understand the friend-zone. I'm not overly attractive physically, I know I'm out of shape and most women have little no interest in me. But when there is that special person, who likes you, confides in you, trusts you with anything in the world... You feel something, and in some cases they do to. I know a girl who puts herself into horrible online, long distance relationships and when they go sour she becomes depressed and everyone's unhappy. We've shared some special moments together. We've almost had relationships in the past but someone/thing has gotten in the way, mainly new bad boyfriends, and it always comes down to "I don't want to ruin our friendship". Maybe I'm delusional as well, who can say, but sometime's I feel sorry for her, other times she just asks for it. That's just my two cents. I think I am taking this too seriously, take from that what you will.

[L-PinkVsD-Pink327 177]

*After reading posts* Would you look at that, more reasons for me not to get in rommance relationships.

 

There my be plenty of fish in the sea, but they're all pirranahs.
